AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY 1247 PM CDT WED SEP 27 2006 .DISCUSSION... EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...THE COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY WAS JUST NW OF THE CWFA. CLOUDS WERE ALONG AND JUST BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. MEANWHILE...CONVECTION WAS SEEN ACROSS SCNTRL MO INTO ARKANSAS IN A ZONE OF STEEP LOW AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...AND AHEAD OF THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF A MID LEVEL TROF...AND PERHAPS A PRE SFC FRONTAL TROF. SPC HAS UPGRADED THEIR PROBABILISTIC GRAPHICS FOR SVR POTENTIAL THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION SVR IN THE GRIDS AND ZFP FOR LATE TODAY AND THIS EVENING. THE 4.5KM NON HYDROSTATIC WRF SHOWS CONVECTION INITIATING ACROSS SE MO AND SRN IL LATE THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH LINES UP RATHER WELL WITH THE RUC AND GFS 3-6HR DEPICTIONS. WILL TRANSLATE OUR HIGHEST POPS SOUTH AND EAST WITH TIME THIS EVENING AS THE FRONT PROGRESSES FROM NW TO SE ACROSS THE FA. BY 06Z...THE FRONT SHOULD BE CLEAR OF ALL THE CWFA...SAVE FOR THE HOPKINSVILLE AREA. AFTER MIDNIGHT...THE THUNDER THREAT DROPS OFF...AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO REFLECT THAT IN THE FCST. THURSDAY STILL A CHALLENGE TEMP WISE. GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO REBOUND OUR MAX TEMPS INTO THE 60S...DESPITE AN ALL DAY LINGERING THREAT OF SHOWERS AND CONSIDERABLE CLOUDS. WILL PLAY IT SAFE AND REMAIN CLOSE TO GUIDANCE FOR NOW DUE TO UNCERTAINTY. THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS SHOULD BE OVER BY THE END OF THE DAY THURSDAY...ONCE THE MID LEVEL TROF AXIS FINALLY MOVES EAST OF THE AREA. THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY MORNING...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE REGION. COOLER AIRMASS...SKIES BECOMING MOSTLY CLEAR...WITH LIGHT WINDS MEANS FROST POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS VERY EARLY FRIDAY MORNING. WILL PLACE IN THE GRIDS AND FORECAST...FOR SE MO AND SRN IL...WHERE MINS COULD RANGE FROM THE MID TO UPPER 30S. MODEL DIFFERENCES EXIST WITH RESPECT TO SATURDAY/S WEATHER MAKER. THE GFS KEEPS THINGS DRY THROUGH THE DAY SATURDAY...WHILE THE NAM/WRF DEVELOPS SHOWERS ACROSS THE FA...ESP DURING THE AFTERNOON. WILL MAINTAIN A LOW CHANCE POP SAT...AND POPS SAT NIGHT FOR SHOWERS. MODELS STILL INCONSISTENT WITH RESPECT TO HOW MUCH ELEVATED INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT...SO WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP THUNDER OUT FOR NOW. OVERALL CONFIDENCE IN THE LONG RANGE FORECAST IS NOT TERRIBLY HIGH. SUNDAY STILL LOOKS DRY WITH WEAK HIGH PRESSURE IN CONTROL. MONDAY...THE 12Z GFS IS NOW SHOWING A NARROW BAND OF DEEPER MOISTURE AND SCANT QPF FROM SE MO INTO SRN IL...LINGERING FROM THE WEEKEND SYSTEM THAT NEVER MOVES FAR AWAY FROM THE AREA. WILL WAIT FOR MORE RUN TO RUN CONSISTENCY WITH RESPECT TO THAT...BEFORE THINKING ABOUT ANY MONDAY POP. WITH RESPECT TO LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY...THE 12Z GFS HAS COME MORE IN LINE WITH THE 00Z ECMWF...IN KEEPING AN APPROACHING FRONTAL SYSTEM TO OUR NORTH. DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY...AND POTENTIAL FOR SETTING UP A FLIP FLOP FORECAST...WILL LEAVE POPS OUT OF THE TUE / WED FORECAST FOR NOW...DESPITE COLLABORATIVE APPEARANCE...SINCE WE ARE STILL WITHIN TOLERANCE WITH OUR NEARBY OFFICES. && .PAH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
